See, it looks a little different

We worked on and off in the yard this week, and then Hobs came over for a marathon gardening session on Sunday.  We:

• buried the drip hose (thanks Mary!)
• planted my birthday apple tree (thanks Dad!)
• added a ton more topsoil as things settled
• moved the big hydrangea
• moved the lavender
• moved something else that I don't know - perhaps a lily
• leveled out the yard
• set a path using the bluestone we found under the concrete
• planted jasmine, thyme and clover seeds.

After all that, we're in a really good place for the ground cover to take off (hopefully!) and make the back stop looking like a dirt pit!
